I have really high hopes for just about any lategame on Multiverse! Seems like it has a ton of potential!

Tripod kinda feels like a map which will have a lot of rush/cheese builds at first, then might evolve into rather cool manouvering as people figure things more out.

Really cool how the middle on Elysion has a lot to say for how how affected you are by where you spawn. Wonder to which extent it'll affect scouting habits, and if people will alter builds to a larger degree based on what they scout. And where they scout it. Might create a ton of different games on the very same map?

A lot of crazy stuff - hope it'll be cool, and not just turn into silly games :D
It's ok. I still love you <3

I love seeing crazy maps in starleagues. They have a chance of being hilariously imbalanced and wrecking the tournament, sure. I'd rather they take the risk than just use slightly different almost-standard maps over and over again for each season, though.

I'm fine with weird maps, but I would enjoy some old map reruns. Destination is the best map in BW history and I'm sure it would produce great games even today. Plasma too.

Hmm...

These maps have potential for some crazy, epic games, sure... but reality doesn't usually match with 'potential'. Sparkle was so cool the first couple games. Like, 'Wow, an island map!' And then every game is a ridiculously long snoozefest where some matchups are nearly impossible to win.

I don't really care that much but I don't like how Elysion has such huge differences based on where you and your opponent spawn. That shit is lame.

But at least the maps can't possibly be any more boring than block chain... right?

I mean with the new Fantasy II it's made up entirely of 4 of the most standard maps of 2010+ so wherever you spawn you should be in a decent position.

If you can defend the La Mancha, Grandline and CB third on the individual maps it shouldn't be an issue here.

The first thing that came to mind when I saw Multiverse was Python...

I miss the days where maps would get pulled from tournaments for being total garbage, like when Demon's Forest got replaced because Protoss couldn't even defend 1 hatch lurker.

LMAO demon's forest...

I loved Desti too, but looking back, it really did become kind of stale in just about every match-up, especially in PvT. It was just too campy.

Horrible confession: I liked the weird long snoozefest matches on sparkle. They were novel. I'm glad sparkle is gone, but I'm also glad it was in the pool for a little while.

Well, the "snoozefest" is still some exciting new and completely different meta. I'd personally like every other map pool or so to have a real island map in it because I feel that is an area where there is still lots of mostly uncharted territory to be explored, both in metagame and map design.

Looking at the first map, I wonder how will terrans deal with fast mutas when spawn positions are close. But well, terran is the most versatile race, easiest to strategize. They will find a way.

Tripod just got updated to v.0.85
Among other things mass Norad walls on Tripod have been replaced by slightly staggered Psi Disruptor walls.
Multiverse has also been updated, mostly resource adjustments.
